We hired Grand Jour Events for both our day of wedding coordinating as well as for flowers and had the pleasure of working directly with Tammara, who was amazing to work with!! Tammara and her assistant were so helpful and really put me at ease on the day of the wedding. There were a few things that I didn’t have figured out for our wedding day but Tammara and her team figured it all out for us, so we didn't even have to think or worry about it. Even though she was the day of coordinator, she still checked in with me multiple times throughout the year to make sure that she was up to speed on everything and that I was making decisions when they needed to be done – she even had helpful spreadsheets. She also really helped me keep organized leading up to the wedding day and even helped me with things I didn't even realize I needed. On top of setting everything up prior to the wedding, Tammara and her team also packed up everything at the end of the night and organized it so well so that we could continue to just enjoy our night. When it came to the flowers, she made my vision come to life! I did have a budget that I wanted to work with and Tammara was able to work within that amount but still deliver everything I wanted. She never tried to upsell me on anything, she really wanted to make sure that she delivered the flowers I wanted but with a cost I was fully comfortable with. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous! I can’t say enough good things about Grand Jour Events. If you’re looking for someone who can do beautiful flowers and wedding coordination, Grand Jour Events is the right pick for the wedding of your dreams! Thanks again Tammara!!
Tammara was an absolutely amazing coordinator! Not only was she contacting us to plan our special day months in advance, but she really made the weekend go by so smooth. She was always there in case I needed anything and really brought the wedding to life just by giving her a couple ideas about how we wanted everything to look like. I was very nervous about having a destination wedding and not being able to help set up, but Tammara calmed my nerves and really captured the day perfectly! I loved being able to have her all weekend for both the rehearsal and the day of! She is very quick with her responses and the forms she had us fill out were perfect! I will be recommending her to all of my friends getting married because she is so amazing! Honestly, I don't think any review would be a good enough review because she was that amazing!
Tammara is the helpful friend you've always needed- especially for wedding planning! Leading up to the wedding she emailed me with reminders of things I needed to make decisions on. The timeline creation process was super helpful. She has years of experience to help you figure out what is feasible for your day. On our wedding day she took care of everything- decor, centerpieces, favors. I didn't have to worry about ANYTHING. I 100% recommend hiring a day of coordinator (especially Grand Jour Events) for your wedding.
Tammara is AMAZING. She did a phenomenal job of setting everything up on the day of our wedding, handling any issues that came up, and she was extremely organized during the planning process. Her team fully exceeded our expectations and we couldn't have done our wedding without her. She is the best of the best!
Tammara did a great job helping me to create a timeline that worked for us. She was very responsive via email. She and her assistant kept the day going as planned and dealt with things as they came up making it easy for me to relax and enjoy the day.
Tammara did all of our flowers and decor at our wedding and she was INCREDIBLE. So sweet and easy to work with, and amazing at what she does. I sent her so many ideas but I didn't know where to start and she took my ideas and made them a reality. Our wedding was so perfect and beautiful - and she was respectful of our budget. You will not be disappointed - she is amazing.
Tammara was amazing! Helped us throughout the whole process with such grace and professionalism. We couldn’t have done it without her and her team.
Our wedding date was March 14th, 2020 right before the state shutdown due to COVID. Tammara and her team were right there with us being so supportive through everything. We’re so happy and grateful!
Tammara was SO helpful for our wedding on June 16th.
She communicated well the entire process, and is so fun and easy to get along with. She is extremely organized with tools that help ensure the day will go smoothly. I had no idea how much detail goes into planning a wedding and she made sure no detail was left out. The day went better than we could have ever imagined thanks to her! Thank you so much Tammara!
Could not have been more pleased with Tammara!! She made all of our dreams come true on our wedding day and did an unbelievable job. The best of the best!!
I recently got married on Belle Isle and was recommended Tammara from a friend. This was one of the best investments EVER, as we can't imagine our day without her now. Tammara was a gem to work with- a quick responder, super personal and funny, and she even added a light-hearted vibe and good humor to the planning process-which was awesome and much needed at times. She answered any questions we had throughout the entire year of our engagement, and when it came to the month of our wedding she was a life-saver. On the day of she set up our ENTIRE wedding venue, made sure we followed our timeline, and communicated with all of our vendors to make sure things ran smoothly. We don't know how we would have done it without her. She made sure everything was cleaned up at the end of the night and packed away for us. Honestly, she couldn't' have done a better job. If you are at all considering hiring Tammara to help with your big day- DO IT. I promise you'll be so happy you did! Thanks so much, Tammara- you made our day so special!
Grand Jour Events was by far the best decision we ever made for our wedding. We had our weddings a few weekends ago. The value was great for the wedding planners and Katrina and Christine were amazing! They set up our entire ballroom for us and went above and beyond our expectations. They left us alone during the evening and took care of everything ensuring we had a great time! Katrina is such a pleasure to work with and we both we so happy with their professionalism and service. We definitely would recommend them to everyone.
Tammara and her company, Grand Jour Events came recommended to us by a friend and she did not exaggerate when she said how awesome GJE was to work with. Tammara's planning and organizing skills are off the charts when it comes to gather information about her couples. She takes such care in learning every detail about you and your wedding vision in your meetings and through additional worksheets and correspondence. They worked quickly and efficiently for set up and tear down, were in communication with all other vendors and knew every quirk of our wedding venue. My fiancé and I spent a year collecting decor items and curating our wedding and had such a specific vision in our minds and what GJE delivered on our Big Day far exceeded our expectations! We were in awe of our own wedding. We can't recommend Grand Jour Events enough.
Tammara at Grand Jour events was wonderful to work with for day of coordination for my July 2016 wedding. I live in Boston but got married in Michigan where I grew up. She was very helpful with recommending vendors, and communicating in a timely manner via email. Tammara has great spreadsheets that she has her clients fill out in the weeks before the wedding, in order to come up with a thorough and cohesive day of timeline. She follows up with all of the vendors the week before the wedding and communicates the timeline--taking all of that work and worry away from the bride, which was great! Everything went perfectly the day of, and she packed up everything at the end of the night and into the proper vehicles. I didn't have to worry about a thing the day of the wedding! I highly recommend Tammara and Grand Jour events. The cost was reasonable compared to other event coordinators as well. I wish I had hired Tammara to plan my whole wedding--and hired her for floral services as well! She really can do it all!
I knew before choosing a wedding florist our budget for flowers was small. I don't know a whole lot about flowers and felt very comfortable giving Tammarra the reigns and letting her suggest what would work best with my colors and season. I love how Tammarra provided a layout of what each bouquet and boutonniere with consist of, in addition she sent a picture of each flower she chose for our wedding flowers to help me visualize. I was able to see a picture of my bouquet the day before my wedding and could not stop smiling. The flowers were gorgeous!! On the day of I was just as pleased with how everything turned out, the colors matched perfectly, and I had only provided her a screenshot of the bridesmaid dress colors. Tammarra packaged and labeled everything so nicely, I was easily able to tell what was what when one of my groomsmen dropped them off to me. I would recommend Tammarra's services, to anyone in need of beautifully coordinated flowers.
I can't say enough great things about Tammara! I actually hugged her at the very end of the day on my wedding when she came to collect her vases! Flower decor was very important to me for my wedding, but I was very indecisive about what I wanted. Tammara was always very accommodating when I would change my mind on what I wanted for my centerpieces, and had SO many great tips for how we could stay within our budget. Tammara was sweet, professional, and dependable. I'm thrilled that we used her company for our big day. You won't be disappointed if you hire her!
Tammara and her company will meet and go beyond your expectations! Tammara created all the floral arrangements and was all the DOC on our big day. Tammara was able to meet with me and my mother-in-law multiple times and was also ALWAYS available to answers questions. Whether it be what the timeline should look like or if she would be able to take my dogs back to my parents house after the ceremony (yes, she really did that!!!). Tammara was always able to answer random questions and give great suggestions and answers . Tammara has an eye for class and beauty and I am soooo happy that we were able to have her design and assist in creating the wedding of my dreams! I am not being over dramatic but she seriously is the best in the business!!
Tammara makes the most GORGEOUS bouquets and arrangements in the business - I have never seen such beautiful flowers and I was overwhelmed with joy to have them for my wedding!! Everyone was blown away by how amazing everything looked and I could not be happier! She is so easy and wonderful to work with, I would highly recommend her to anyone!!!
Tamarra was beyond amazing! She took care of little details and issues the day of that I didn't even know existed! So supportive and upbeat the entire day.
From start to finish, I was very pleased with the work that GJE provided. We started several months in advance, and GJE provided both Day-Off services and Floral needs for myself and the wedding party. Owner was very responsive (24 hours or less) to all inquiries, and worked to provide a beautiful arrangement that was within my budget. Due to weather and a few other unforeseen circumstances, our timeline got throw off quite a bit, but GJE was quick to make some last minute switches to keep things running smoothly. Out of all the things we spent money on, aside from our honeymoon --- THIS was one thing that was worth the most! My friends and family, including my mom and bridesmaids especially, did not have to worry about cleanup, collecting our wedding certificate, paying out the vendors....ect. GJE took care of everything, and our whole wedding party and our guests could enjoy the night freely. That was a huge relief. Everything turned out amazing. Thank you GJE, and to anyone considering them -- book early, it is well work it!
Tammara was the most amazing person to work with during my wedding. She made everything go smoothly. There were times I felt like I was doing something wrong or needed to be doing something and she always found time to talk to me and put me on the right path. She took care of EVERYTHING crying babies, missing vases she handled everything and I did not even know anything was wrong until after. The night was flawless because of her. If I had to choose my favorite vendor of my entire wedding it would be Grand Jour events.
We hired Tammara based on a recommendation from the awesome Maureen C. Our wedding was at a our friend's farm which meant we had to bring in vendors to cover everything--tables and chairs, DJs, caterers, bars, etc etc. Being that I plan events for a living I didn't really need anyone to coordinate all that for me, I'm used to managing a few different vendors, juggling contacts, etc. However, that was the last thing I wanted to do on my actual wedding day, so I decided to hire a day of coordinator who could be our point person through it all.
Tammara made the whole process so smooth. I provided all my vendor contacts and she checked in with them the week of to make sure everything was set. She sent me worksheets which made the timeline and the ceremony structure easy to plan. I went into the day feeling stressed (of course! I stress about everything!) but also confident in knowing
The day of Tammara and Stephanie (one of her coordinators) were excellent. We had a bit of rain and they came up with contingency plans for the ceremony should we need them. Luckily the rain stayed at a drizzle so we moved forward with the outdoor proceedings but I was grateful for their back up all the same. They made sure all the chairs from the ceremony were moved into the reception barn, they even moved decorations from outside into the reception area to help dress it up during the dinner and dancing (a touch I didn't even consider but appreciated as they looked fantastic in the photos). They helped make sure the catering, bar and all the other odds and ends else went smoothly. They even cleaned up post wedding and loaded all the gifts and some decor pieces in my car. The next day when my husband and I went back to the space to finish clean up we were delighted to find that we didn't have to do a darn thing other than load up the rest of the boxes (that they had filled with the rest of the wedding decor and misc. wedding items in the car) and the linens (that they had placed in the rental bags for us) and everything was done. After all the set up, the stress leading up to it and of course all the fun from the day of I was absolutely exhausted the day after and was so grateful for the easy clean up that I cried tears of relief on my drive back home.
Also, and most importantly for many, her prices are incredibly reasonable. Especially given the time she spends with each client and how well she does her job. There are several packages that work in levels of affordability and come with different hours she and her team commits to your event. Something for everyone and your needs. I would hire her again in a heartbeat and I highly recommend that you do too, should you be in the market for an event coordinator.
I highly recommend Grand Jour Events. I booked floral and wedding coordination through them and both services were excellent. Grand Jour Events went above and beyond. My friend has already contacted them to book for her wedding next year and I will continue to recommend this company.
I used GJE for my wedding flowers and they were gorgeous! My guests are still talking about how beautiful everything was. And the prices were lower than other florists that I contacted. I also used GJE for wedding coordination. It was so nice knowing I was in good hands. GJE took care of everything! From set up, to clean and making sire everything ran smoothly. Meeting with Tammara to go over the final timeline and hand of my set up items really helped me enjoys the last week of planning knowing she had everything taken care of from calling vendors to storing and bringing my set up items the day of. Throughout the night Tammara and her assistant keep checking on us and making sure we were ok. My mom and dad didn't know if we really needed a DOC but they both said hiring GJE was the best wedding decision and I agree! You won't be disappointed!
We used Grand Jour Events for our wedding a couple weeks ago and I could not be any happier with how everything turned out. The bouquets, centerpieces, bouts, and corsages were absolutely gorgeous and Tammara was so helpful! She was so easy to get in touch with and helped me through all of my worries my whole planning process. I can say over and over again how I would recommend this company to anyone! She sees your vision and makes it come to life. I have had so many people compliment me on our florist since the wedding!! Go with this company you will not regret it!!!
My wedding was in August 2014. I used Grand Jour Events for our flowers. Working with Tammara was so easy, I sent her pictures I found online of flowers I liked and she was easily able to figure out exactly what I was looking for. She was spot on. I was not able to meet with her in person because I live in NC and was planning long distance. I was nervous to handle all of this so far away without seeing anything in person. I couldn't have been more pleased with the final result. Everything was exactly what I was hoping for. Tammara quickly responded to my emails and questions- the process was seamless. Our flowers were delivered on time and they were beautiful. I would highly recommend using Grand Jour Events- I am so happy I did!
I was referred to Grand Jour Events by a lady who sold me candles for my wedding. Grand Jour can double as both the wedding coordinator and florist - we ended up using them as a florist and they also helped out with take-down. Grand Jour did an absolutely superb job!! They really aim to please! Tammara from Grand Jour was extreme responsive, accommodating, and professional. She calmly dealt with my numerous add-ons and frequent messaging. Looking back I wish I would have used her as a wedding coordinator (remember that ladies) instead of taking the load on myself! I really can't say enough good things. My bridal bouquet was second only to my dress. I absolutely loved them. I'm kind of a flower fanatic and they were just gorgeous. Grand Jour also went above and beyond by adding flowers to my cake - which was also beautiful! Thank you Grand Jour!!!
I am incredibly Thankful for the day of event services by grand jour events! It helped to make our Wedding in June stress free! Services were very reasonably priced and coordinators were easy to meet with. Stephanie was a life saver during our wedding! She helped with setup, clean up, and any problems that arised during the day. Thank you so much! Would definitely recommend this company and day of event services!!
Choosing Tammara and Grand Jour Events as our wedding day of coordinator was the best decision we made! From the moment we started working with Tammara she was a dream to work with- friendly, professional, knowledgeable, organized, and super helpful! I hired GJE pretty early on in the planning process, but Tammara always responded to my emails quickly and happily answered all of my (many) questions. The GJE wedding day timeline worksheet helped me so much in my planning and made the day run so smoothly! I was able to relax the week of our wedding because I knew that Tammara would be coordinating everything from there on. I didn't have to do anything the day of our wedding but get ready and enjoy the day. Not only did Tammara and her assistant set everything up and make sure everything was running according to plan, they also helped get our guests involved in signing the guest book, taking favors, and completing activities. If you need a day of coordinator, hire Grand Jour Events! They are worth their weight in gold!
We also hired GJE to do the flowers for our wedding and they did an amazing job! Their prices are reasonable and Tammara went above and beyond to help us get the look we wanted while keeping everything within our budget. The flowers were more beautiful than I hoped they would be and really took our reception decor to the next level.
Grand Jour Events was excellent. I hired Grand Jour Events for Day Of Coordination. I made all of my decorations myself, but I needed someone to actually set them up day-of. My decorations were very detailed, the centerpieces reflected the individuals who were seated at the table. I needed to make sure that they were set up right, and Grand Jour Events made sure they knew exactly what I wanted for every little detail. The whole day, I never had to worry about a thing. I felt very lucky that I had hired Grand Jour Events, because unlike other brides I had heard about, I was able to fully enjoy my own wedding and not worry about any of the details. They also cleaned up everything and packed up everything, which my parents appreciated. It was great that I, nor my family, had to be burdened with the work of the wedding. Everything went smoothly and well, thanks to Grand Jour Events.
Tammara did an AMAZING job on our flowers and center pieces for our wedding. My wedding could not have been more beautiful! Her responsiveness and quality of service were beyond anyone's expectations. She was helpful and shared many different ideas with us when I felt so overwhelmed, since I was planning the wedding out of state. However, when I saw our venue decorated for our wedding day, I literally had tears in my eyes.
I wouldn't have had it any other way. I highly reccomend using Grand Jour Events because Tammara is creative, professional, and extremely dedicated to making sure you will have the wedding of your dreams.
First of all Tammara is THE BEST. Not only did we hire Grand Jour for DOC services but also our gorgeous flowers!!! We live out of state so we were nervous about getting everything in order, and about our flowers. Tammara communicated so well with us, and never once were we stressed. She even arranged a last minute in person meeting when we were in town during the holidays. She helped us when our invitation vendor fell through at the last minute, and gave us the perfect person to make them happen quickly. Really our day was worry free, and beautiful because of all Grand Jour Events. People are still talking about the stunning flowers, and how no one (even us) knew if anything went wrong. Best decision of our wedding process. Thank you for everything!!!!!!
We can not say enough about how amazing grand jour events made our wedding! They completely ran the show and made everything run so smooth....even when most of the groomsmen had the wrong tux, I had no idea....they took care of it and made everyone look great before the big "I do"!! These ladies really know their stuff. They are so professional and really know how to get the job done....right! This was by far the best money that we spent on the wedding! I would 100% recommend and use again this great group of people!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you for making our day soooo amazing!!!!
It took me quite a while to find the perfect florist for me. I was looking for a specific style as well as a price that didn't blow you off your feet! After searching high and low, I stumbled upon Grand Jour Event's website and called up Tammara. From the start, she was so friendly and easy to work with. She met with me face to face (even traveling to a place closer to where I live in order to make it easier on me!) and she answered all my emails very promptly. We worked together to create the perfect floral arrangements. I ended up with my bridal bouquet, 4 bridesmaids bouquets, and 4 mothers/grandmothers corsages for $400! A pretty darn good price in the flower world. She even remembered to make a toss bouquet for me (which i had forgotten about) and gave it to me for free! :) Everything she created was STUNNING! It went perfectly with my vintage glam style! I DEFINITELY recommend Tammara as a florist, and I'm sure she would be an amazing planner as well!
Stephanie was a joy to work with, very friendly and on top of everything.
She did a great job of setting everything up at the reception!
I cannot say enough good things about Tammara and Amber! They were a godsend throughout the wedding planning process and answered endless emails and phone calls and provided advice for everything. They came with me to my linen appointment and thank god they were there or I would have been lost without them. They also came to our rehearsal, which was great because we had no idea what we were doing. Amber took charge and made the rehearsal short and to the point and it went off without a hitch. The day of the event they were there all day setting up and making sure everything looked perfect in the ceremony and venue area. Amber and her assistant Stephanie made sure my husband and I had everything we wanted, even running up to our room at one point to get chapstick for us. They also kept the night running smoothly and on time with the toasts, dinner, dances, and bouquet toss and at the end of the night cleaned everything up and delivered it back to our hotel room. We were unsure we actually needed a DOC when we started planning but looking back it was the best money we spent on the wedding! I highly recommend Tammara and her team to everyone planning a wedding and will continue to do so for years to come!
Tammara and her girls are efficient, professional, and hard working. They set up all of the DIY wedding decor we had and it was perfect! The day was beautiful!
Tammara is incredibly organized and does a lot to prepare ahead of time for the day. Because of her attention to detail, things went off smoothly.
**We didn't use GJE as the wedding planner, it automatically jumped to this category; we used them as our florist***
Tammara was very easy to communicate with during our decision making for the flowers we wanted. She helped me find the most affordable flowers for our huge wedding party and they turned out absolutely beautiful! I was able to send her the exact ribbon I wanted used and the photo of my grandpa I wanted on my bouquet. She did a beautiful job and I appreciate her great service!
I am soooo happy I hired Tammara Kane! She made my day perfect! It was so nice to be able to enjoy our wedding day without having to worry about the details. She was amazing, and set everything up PERfECTLY! I will recommend her for years to come!
Thank you Tammara, You are wonderful!

I loved my flowers and Tammara and her team helped our set up of our reception and gently guided me through the processes of planning the wedding. My bouquet was AMAZING. She worked within the small budget I had and made everything look spectacular!
Tammara truly knows what it takes to make sure that your event runs smoothly. I met with her one time and I could have met with her another time but I felt so comfortable that I didn't have to. Stephanie her assistant was my event coordinator. I could communicate through email all that I wanted to. I had all my wedding stuff at my hall with notes and she set up my hall to perfection! I was pleased with everything!
Tammara also did our flowers. Can we say AMAZING!! They all turned out so beautifuly! The prices were fantastic for both and the service was well worth it!
I was really thankful for hiring Tammara--it took a lot of pressure off of me for how I was going to set up and break down my event.
Tammara was a Godsend. She made the day so easy to enjoy. She takes care of everything and is so reliable. I never thought I would book a DOC but I am so glad I did!
I cannot say enough great things about Tammara and her assistant, Stephanie: excellent communication, impeccable attention to detail, pure dedication, and simply good people! Both were truly wonderful on the day of our wedding and throughout the planning process, ensuring that things went perfectly. They were on top of everything, from start to finish, and I am convinced that they are the best out there! Tammara also did all of our flowers and they were beyond beautiful and exactly as we discussed. I would whole-heartedly recommend Grand Jour Events to anyone looking for a wedding coordinator and/or florist!
Hiring Tammara was one of the best choices I made during the planning of my wedding. I would highly recommend her. As an added bonus she did all of my flowers at cost which was great. It was worth every penny to have her there all day to set up so that I didn't have to even think about the set up or take down of my wedding.
I cannot rave enough about how amazing Tammara was!!!!! She was on top of every little detail. During the reception, she made sure my husband and I could enjoy ourselves and made sure we got each type of food and kept bringing us drinks. She was our absolute best vendor. We were so impressed by her and was the best spent money for our wedding. She is undercharging and we are going to send her a BIG tip with our thank you card. If you aren't sure whether you want/need a DOC, trust me, you do and you need to hire Tammara.
They did my centerpieces and bouquets, corsages, and boutonnieres. Everything turned out perfect!! The price for all of it was the best! She also was my DOC for my wedding. I would recommend Tammara to anyone!!
